In addition to the standard "main line" figures, several sub-lines were developed. Some, such as the [[Fast Action Battler]]s and [[Cyber Slammers]], are aimed at younger users. Others, such as [[Real Gear Robots]] and the various role play toys, expand on the plot and concepts of the movie.

The [[2007]] film '''''[[Transformers (film)|Transformers]]''''' was accompanied by one of the largest product blitzes in the history of the [[Transformers brand|''Transformers'' brand]]. The prominence of the movie allowed [[Hasbro]] to push the toy line to new levels of complexity and diversity.   


Virtually all of the movie cast received multiple toy incarnations at various price points, from the tiny $4 [[Legends of Cybertron|Legends]] versions and two-for-$5 [[Robot Heroes]] PVCs up to the massive, complex, [[gimmick|electronic]] $80 Ultimate [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]. Given the limited number of Transformers featured in the movie, the toyline naturally contains many additional characters. Many of these are featured in alternate movie-related media, such as prequel comics and video games.

Others, such as [[Real Gear Robot]]s and the various [[roleplay toy|roleplay toys]], expand on the plot and concepts of the movie. Furthermore, many stores received various exclusive [[redeco]]s and multi-packs. Other markets, such as Japan and even Europe, also had their own exclusives.


Virtually all characters of the movie cast received multiple toy incarnations at various price points, from the tiny $4 [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends]] versions and two-for-$5 ''[[Robot Heroes (toyline)|Robot Heroes]]'' PVCs up to the massive, complex, [[Gimmick|electronic]] $80 Ultimate [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys|Bumblebee]]. Given the limited number of Transformers featured in the movie, the toyline naturally contains many additional characters. Many of these are featured in alternate movie-related media, such as prequel comics and video games. 
Following the success of the movie toyline, it was expanded with the ''[[AllSpark Power]]'' and ''[[Premium Series]]'' sub-lines, while the subsequent toyline, ''[[Transformers Animated (toyline)|Transformers Animated]]'', was officially pushed back from late 2007/early [[2008]] to [[July]] 2008.

===<u>Action figures ("main" line)</u>===
[[File:Moviebonecrushertoy.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Bonecrusher hates being a Deluxe.]]
The main line movie figures attempt to emulate the complex, multi-faceted appearance of the screen characters, succeeding to a remarkable degree given the radical style shift. Robot modes integrate and hide their vehicle mode [[kibble]] very well, avoiding most of the parts-clearance problems seen in many "[[shellformer]]" style designs. Even non-film characters match the overall aesthetic. Most alternate forms are realistically styled contemporary Earth vehicles, many of which are [[Licensed vehicle alternate modes|licensed replicas]].


===Action Figures ("main" line)===
The main line figures feature an above-average design complexity, packing an amazing number of moving parts into a small package. Transformations are fairly complex, and tend to capture the movie's visual spectacle of a vehicle flying apart into a thousand pieces as the robots transform. The primary gimmick of the main line is "[[Automorph Technology]]", a gimmick by which moving one piece of a toy will in turn move other pieces into their designated positions via hidden gears, furthering the parallel with the movie's visuals. 


====Overview====
[[File:TF07-Classic-Bumblebee.jpg|right|upright=1.1|thumb|Float like a butterfly and sting like a......wait- what's my name again?.]]
[[Image:Moviebonecrushertoy.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Deluxe Bonecrusher.]]
The main line movie figures attempt to emulate the spindly, multi-faceted appearance of the screen characters, succeeding to a remarkable degree. This aesthetic carries over to characters that do not appear in the movie, giving the line a unified appearance. Most alternate forms are realistically styled contemporary Earth vehicles, many of which are licensed replicas.


The main line figures feature an above-average design complexity, with figures such as Deluxe Bumblebee packing an amazing number of moving parts into a small package. Transformations are fairly complex, and tend to capture the movie's visual spectacle of a vehicle flying apart into a thousand pieces as the robots transform. The primary gimmick of the main line is "[[Automorph Technology]]", a gimmick by which moving one piece of a toy will in turn move other pieces into their designated positions via hidden gears, furthering the parallel with the movie's visuals.  
Another major aspect of the line is its heavy focus on "core cast", making sure most of the film Autobots and Decepticons were available at multiple price points, especially the budget-minded [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends]] [[size class]], which was once again available at all major retailers (instead of just at specialty and convenience stores). While the newly created bots in the film were left out, the ''concept'' was represented by the [[Real Gear Robot]]s. Even major [[human]] characters got toys (rare for a ''Transformers'' toyline) in the "Screen Battles" diorama sets.


[[Image:Bumblebeemovietoydeluxe67.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Deluxe Bumblebee as a '76 Camaro.]]
Unfortunately, due to issues of vehicle mode licensing and the fact that the robot designs are the shared intellectual property of [[Paramount Pictures|Paramount]], the movie series toys were not available to be [[redeco]]ed in non-film-based lines, not even as [[BotCon|convention]] [[exclusive]]s. (This rule would later be relaxed slightly to allow "offscreen" character molds to be used, but that's not til the [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|next movie-based line]]....)
Many of the vehicle modes' exteriors are formed by thin panels, but limbs and torsos are sufficiently integral to the vehicle-mode panels that they are not [[shellformer|shellformers]]. On some of the toys, these panels swing back on themselves or are otherwise concealed to such an extent that the finished robot gives comparatively little indication that it turns into a vehicle at all -- yet another point of unity with the movie's design aesthetic.


Unfortunately, due to issues of vehicle-mode licensing and the fact that the robot designs are the shared intellectual property of [[DreamWorks]], it is a virtual certainty that the Movie toys will never be made available as [[redeco|redecos]] in other franchises or as [[BotCon|convention]] [[Exclusive|exclusives]]. So get 'em while the getting's good!

;Allspark Battles 2-packs
:"Allspark Battles" are two-packs that contain two Legends Class figures each. On the North American market, they replaced the Legends Class single packs in late 2007, coinciding with the launch of the ''[[AllSpark Power]]'' sub-line (see below), whereas other markets continued getting some of the toys included in these two-packs as single packs instead (see above).

====Movie [[Real Gear Robots]]====
Capitalizing on movie scenes in which the [[All Spark]] brings ordinary Earth machines to life, Real Gear Robots is a line of modern electronic items which convert to miniscule robots.  The toys are comparable to the Scout class in size and price.  Their alternate forms tend to be slightly scaled down from life size, with realism varying widely.  The robot modes are generally more in line with the blocky aesthetic of [[Generation 1]], rather than the more complex look of the movie characters.

===Store exclusives===
===Store exclusives===
While store [[exclusive]]s were certainly nothing new to ''Transformers'' by this point, the movie toyline positively blew the doors off past lines in terms of sheer numbers, both in the amount of product and in the number of outlets to get exclusives. It was pretty difficult to keep track of everything; what was a new deco, what was a plain repack, what was just-different-enough-to-make-you-mad, etc.


====Target exclusive Scouts====
Of course, many of these store exclusives ended up as mass retail releases outside the US, or as exclusives to different chains (both regional and international). See individual entries for more details.
:Note: The Scouts were available as non-exclusive mass retail releases in Canada, Europe and Australia.

===Premium Series===
 
In October 2007, Hasbro announced a series of "Premium" [[redeco|redecos]] of previously released Movie toys with an improved (oftentimes metallic) and more [[show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] finish and paint applications. When the "Premium Series" was announced, it was confirmed to include a few redecos that had already been released by that point (and therefore didn't sport any indication that they were supposed to be part of a "Premium Series" on the packaging), as well as various other toys that wouldn't be revealed until later. Four of these redecos are store exclusives, whereas the rest has been confirmed to be available as part of the mass retail assortments. The Premium Series, as confirmed thus far, consists of:
 
'''Mass retail Deluxe Class toys'''
*[[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] (redeco/remold of Deluxe Concept Camaro Bumblebee, sporting the same "battle mask" head sculpt as Stealth Battle Bumblebee)
{{comingsoontoy}}
*[[Jazz (Movie)|Autobot Jazz]] (redeco of Deluxe Autobot Jazz)
*[[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] (redeco of Deluxe Barricade)
 
'''Mass retail Voyager Class toys'''
*[[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] (redeco of Voyager Class Ironhide)
*[[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] (redeco of Voyager Class Blackout)

====UK variants====
* [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Nightwatch Optimus Prime]] (Leader Class; missing the US version's "Allspark Power" blue paint and coming in slightly different packaging) - was available in the UK several months before the US version came out, as an Argos exclusive
 
====Japanese variants====

* MA-18 [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Nightwatch Optimus Prime]] (Leader Class; identical to the UK version)
* MD-22 [[Incinerator (Movie)|Incinerator]] (Voyager Class; sporting a different main color color and a slightly different deco than the US version, thus making it more accurate to the V-22 Ospreys featured in the Movie; also comes with a small Allspark cube accessory)
 
===International exclusives===
Even though European countries got some of the US toyline's store exclusives (such as the Toys'R'Us exclusive "Decepticon Desert Attack" two-pack with Voyager Class Blackout and Deluxe Class Scorponok) as well, some of them even at mass retail (such as the Target exclusive Scout Class redecos of Cybertron toys, or the "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack with the Deluxe Class Classic and Concept Camaro Bumblebee toys), and some toys that were released as store exclusives in the UK (such as Deluxe Class Recon Barricade) or Japan (such as Leader Class Decepticon Brawl) were available at mass retail in the USA, there were some multi-packs and redecos that were genuine exclusives to European countries or Japan.

Movie continuity family
Transformers (2007) »
These ain't your daddy's toys, kids.

The 2007 film Transformers was accompanied by one of the largest product blitzes in the history of the Transformers brand. The prominence of the movie allowed Hasbro to push the toy line to new levels of complexity and diversity.

In addition to the standard "main line" figures, several sub-lines were developed. Some, such as the Fast Action Battlers and Cyber Slammers, are aimed at younger users. Others, such as Real Gear Robots and the various roleplay toys, expand on the plot and concepts of the movie. Furthermore, many stores received various exclusive redecos and multi-packs. Other markets, such as Japan and even Europe, also had their own exclusives.

Virtually all characters of the movie cast received multiple toy incarnations at various price points, from the tiny $4 Legends versions and two-for-$5 Robot Heroes PVCs up to the massive, complex, electronic $80 Ultimate Bumblebee. Given the limited number of Transformers featured in the movie, the toyline naturally contains many additional characters. Many of these are featured in alternate movie-related media, such as prequel comics and video games.

Following the success of the movie toyline, it was expanded with the AllSpark Power and Premium Series sub-lines, while the subsequent toyline, Transformers Animated, was officially pushed back from late 2007/early 2008 to July 2008.

Toyline

[edit]

Action figures ("main" line)

[edit]
Bonecrusher hates being a Deluxe.

The main line movie figures attempt to emulate the complex, multi-faceted appearance of the screen characters, succeeding to a remarkable degree given the radical style shift. Robot modes integrate and hide their vehicle mode kibble very well, avoiding most of the parts-clearance problems seen in many "shellformer" style designs. Even non-film characters match the overall aesthetic. Most alternate forms are realistically styled contemporary Earth vehicles, many of which are licensed replicas.

The main line figures feature an above-average design complexity, packing an amazing number of moving parts into a small package. Transformations are fairly complex, and tend to capture the movie's visual spectacle of a vehicle flying apart into a thousand pieces as the robots transform. The primary gimmick of the main line is "Automorph Technology", a gimmick by which moving one piece of a toy will in turn move other pieces into their designated positions via hidden gears, furthering the parallel with the movie's visuals.

Float like a butterfly and sting like a......wait- what's my name again?.

Another major aspect of the line is its heavy focus on "core cast", making sure most of the film Autobots and Decepticons were available at multiple price points, especially the budget-minded Legends size class, which was once again available at all major retailers (instead of just at specialty and convenience stores). While the newly created bots in the film were left out, the concept was represented by the Real Gear Robots. Even major human characters got toys (rare for a Transformers toyline) in the "Screen Battles" diorama sets.

Unfortunately, due to issues of vehicle mode licensing and the fact that the robot designs are the shared intellectual property of Paramount, the movie series toys were not available to be redecoed in non-film-based lines, not even as convention exclusives. (This rule would later be relaxed slightly to allow "offscreen" character molds to be used, but that's not til the next movie-based line....)


Legends Class

Wave 1 Wave 2 Wave 3 Wave 4 (non-US only)

Allspark Battles 2-packs
"Allspark Battles" are two-packs that contain two Legends Class figures each. On the North American market, they replaced the Legends Class single packs in late 2007, coinciding with the launch of the AllSpark Power sub-line (see below), whereas other markets continued getting some of the toys included in these two-packs as single packs instead (see above).
Wave 1 Wave 2 Wave 3


Real Gear Robots

Real Gear Robots are a sub-set based on modern (well, for the time) electronic items which convert to miniscule robots, basically a 1:1 scale line of toys.

Plain Transformers Fun

[edit]

Super-simple fun for all ages!


Mr. Potato Head Transformers
Yes, the famous Mr. Potato Head. This was the start of an ongoing cross-branding of one of Hasbro's longest-running toys with Transformers.


Plush Transformers
Are you ready for adorable? These small plush versions of the Generation 1 Optimus Prime and Bumblebee "transform" by unzipping their backs and folding them inside-out, which gives you a nice compact vehicle-mode plush!


Robot Heroes
The Robot Heroes are 2-inch non-transforming "super deformed" soft-plastic figurines, featuring characters from a mix of generations. While the line lasted a lot longer than the waves listed here, we're just going to focus on the stuff in specifically movie-branded packaging (even though half of those had Generation 1 characters).
Wave 1 (G1) Wave 2 (G1) Wave 3 (G1) Wave 4 (movie)
Robot Heroes Starscream and Bumblebee
Wave 5 (movie) Wave 6 (movie)


Collector items

[edit]

Wave 1 Turnaround (Wave 1) Turnaround (Wave 2) Turnaround (Wave 3)
Wave 3 was only released in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Australia and Mexico.


Robot Replicas
Wave 1 Wave 2


Titanium Series (3")
Wave 1 Wave 2 Wave 3


Store exclusives

[edit]

While store exclusives were certainly nothing new to Transformers by this point, the movie toyline positively blew the doors off past lines in terms of sheer numbers, both in the amount of product and in the number of outlets to get exclusives. It was pretty difficult to keep track of everything; what was a new deco, what was a plain repack, what was just-different-enough-to-make-you-mad, etc.

Of course, many of these store exclusives ended up as mass retail releases outside the US, or as exclusives to different chains (both regional and international). See individual entries for more details.

Best Buy

[edit]

Yes, Best Buy the American electronics retail chain. For a brief while they dabbled in collectibles. It didn't last long, but long enough to get out a pair of Voyager molds with Premium Series level more screen-accurate, metallic paint jobs.


BJ's Wholesale Club

[edit]
  • Cyber Stompin' Optimus Prime with Bonus Robot Heroes Rodimus & Insecticon
  • Cyber Stompin' Optimus Prime with Bonus Robot Heroes Mirage & Starscream

  • Cyber Stompin' Optimus Prime with Bonus Robot Heroes Optimus Prime & Ravage
  • Cyber Stompin' Bumblebee with Bonus Robot Heroes Rodimus & Insecticon
Official stock photos of the Bumblebee combo have been seen; but unlike the various Optimus Prime combos, it's unclear whether this one has ever actually been released.

Target

[edit]

Target was one of the biggest exclusives outlets for new-deco/significantly-changed-deco toys, with the "Robo-Vision" promotion featuring heavily early on. They were also the only American store to get "Scout" class toys, although these also saw later releases as non-exclusives in other countries.

    Notable international variants

    [edit]
    Incinerator was one of the rare figures to feature significant differences between the Hasbro and TakaraTomy versions.

    Even though the Movie toyline differed from previous Transformers toylines insofar as TakaraTomy's Japanese versions of the toys were almost identical to their Hasbro counterparts (as a matter of fact, the Japanese "mainline" toys even came in Hasbro packaging, with additional Japanese stickers on the packaging identifying them as the Japanese versions), there were a few genuine variants - and on top of that, one of those variants was also released in the United Kingdom, making it the first shared Japanese/European "variant" toy since red Armada Powerlinx Thrust.

    UK variants

    [edit]
    • Nightwatch Optimus Prime (Leader Class; missing the US version's AllSpark Power blue paint and coming in slightly different packaging)
    This toy was available exclusively at Argos stores in the United Kingdom several months before the US version came out. Apparently this had originally been intended for the United States market, since the packaging sports various US market-specific logos and English-only texts.

    Japanese variants

    [edit]
    • MA-03 Bumblebee (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro; using clear blue plastic for the windows with painted over yellow car parts, instead of the US version's yellow plastic with tampographed blue windows)
    • MA-18 Nightwatch Optimus Prime (Leader Class; identical to the UK version)
    • MA-19 Landmine (different shade than the Hasbro version, and features tires made of rubber instead of plastic)
    • MA-21 Battle Mode Optimus Prime (same mold as Hasbro's Leader Class Premium Series Optimus Prime, but features vacuum metallized rims, bumper/grill and gas tanks/toolboxes. His overall paint deco in robot mode is also slightly more detailed.)
    • MD-22 Incinerator (Voyager Class; sporting black as the main colour and a slightly different deco than the US version; also comes with a small AllSpark cube accessory)

    International exclusives

    [edit]
    Even though European countries got some of the US toyline's store exclusives (such as various Toys'R'Us exclusive releases) as well, some of them even at mass retail (such as the Target exclusive Scout Class redecos of Energon and Cybertron toys, or the "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack with the Deluxe Class Classic and Concept Camaro Bumblebee toys), and some toys that were released as store exclusives in Japan (such as Leader Class Decepticon Brawl) were available at general retail in the USA, there were also some multi-packs and redecos that were genuine exclusives to European countries or Japan.

    Non-US market Legends Class single packs

    [edit]
    Wave 4 (AllSpark Power Wave 1)
    The toys themselves are identical to those released as part of the "Allspark Battles" two-packs in the USA. However, these versions come on European-style single cards. They were available in various European markets, Hasbro's Asian markets, Australia and New Zealand.

    Non-US market Hasbro multi-packs

    [edit]
    These two-packs have only been released in Mexico.
    This three-pack has only been available as a mass retail release in the United Kingdom.
    This two-pack has been available as a mass retail release in Hong Kong, as an Argos exclusive in the United Kingdom, as a Kmart exclusive in Australia, and with undetermined distribution in France. Apparently this had originally been intended for the United States market, since the packaging sports various logos and design elements usually only found on North American packaging, as well as English-only texts.
    • "Towed to Safety" 2-pack (Deluxe Class Longarm & Deluxe Class Classic Camaro Bumblebee)
    This two-pack has only been available as a mass retail release in the United Kingdom.

    Non-US market Hasbro "special" single packs

    [edit]
    • Autobot Optimus Prime (battle damaged redeco of Voyager Class Optimus Prime, identical to the one from the Sam's Club exclusive 3-pack)
    • Arcee (battle damaged redeco of Deluxe Class Arcee, identical to the one from the Sam's Club exclusive 3-pack)
    These toys have only been released in Asia, but were also stocked by US-based online retailers. "Autobot Optimus Prime" comes in the same packaging style and sports the same assortment number as the Best Buy exclusive Premium Series redecos of Autobot Ratchet and Megatron, while Arcee comes on the same cardback as the regular release, with the only difference being an additional "exclusive battle damage" sticker on the blister bubble and a different barcode. An isolated sighting for Arcee has been reported from a Walmart store in the USA, which might or might not have been a fluke.

    Japanese exclusive molds

Eventually, the only two "Ultra Class" releases were redecos of Cybertron toys that were exclusively available at Toys"R"Us stores. The 2008 Universe line brought the price point back as a mass retail assortment.
    • The Fracture, Crankcase, and Breakaway exclusive toys were originally meant to be part of the 2008 Universe line, but Walmart insisted that they be placed into the Movie line instead (their logic being that the old Universe line eventually failed in the market, while the Movie line was a dramatic hit). The same is true for Big Daddy, Grindcore, Jolt and Divebomb, if this Hasbro product listing is any indication.
    • Most—if not—all of the Target exclusive Scout Class figures were sold exclusively at Farmers in New Zealand, while the Toys"R"Us and Walmart exclusives were sold exclusively at The Warehouse.

This is all in marked contrast to later lines, where expanded toy ranges or reduced fictional offerings meant many toys never really appeared in fiction.

    "Drought"

    [edit]
    Oh well. Better luck with the sequel toys!

    For the remainder of 2007 following the movie's premiere, many fans complained of a severe toy shortage in most markets, particularly the U.S. Mainline figures had proven to be more difficult to locate at retail than in many years, if not ever. This was due to the convergence of several factors:

    • The tremendous success and high profile of the movie has vastly broadened the toy-buying audience, with many more kids, adult collectors, and scalpers seeking out product.
    • Major retailers such as Walmart and Target placed orders for TF movie product based on their sales records for Cybertron and Classics figures, as well as movie-related toylines in general, which tend not to do well (as the Spider-Man 3 figures still warming shelves for many months can attest).
    • Unusual congestion at Chinese factories and shipping docks lengthened the time necessary to produce and ship new figures to the West.

    Ironically for much of 2008, as supply began to overtake demand, the movie toys became shelf-warmers, appearing not to sell in huge numbers, and often to the detriment of shelf-space for the newer Animated and Universe toylines.

    Legacy

    [edit]
    • While previous lines had occasionally featured multiple toys of the same character in different sizes, the Movie line considerably increased their number, with nearly all characters from the primary fiction getting a multitude of toys in various sizes and with different gimmicks, many of which were released around the same time.
    • The Movie line also took the concept of auto-transforming parts and sections, which had occasionally been used by a few toys from previous lines, and made it a line-wide gimmick, here named "Automorph Technology".
